Grace for the Humble

One can only be humble looking at God’s work.

Job 9:4

God is wise in heart, and mighty in strength; who has resisted him, and succeeded?

.

1 Peter 5:5b

All of you must clothe yourselves with humility in your dealings with one another, for
“God opposes the proud,
but gives grace to the humble.”

…

Words of Grace for Today –

…

Being humble is to allow

that the other person might know a little about what they are doing.

That is hard to grant to some

who act like idiots

more often than not.

…

But true idiots

cannot benefit

from honest reactions to their idiocies.

…

Those who benefit are the ones who respond with grace to idiots,

for to condemn others, putting aside all grace and humility

only corrodes the heart and spirit.

…

Since Jesus commanded us to love one another,

to resist such wisdom is not going to help much good come one’s way.

…

But the honest truth is treating real fools and idiots with Grace is always a challenge!

God help us.
